A top Iranian security official on Tuesday said Iran would not negotiate with the United States until its conditions were met.
The Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, Mohsen Rezaei, made the remarks in a post on X in response to U.S. President Donald Trump’s comments on Monday, September 14, 2026.
Trump said Tehran wanted to reach a deal “quickly and badly” and that Washington could resume negotiations with Iran.
“The failing Nation of Iran wants to make a deal, quickly and badly,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
Rezaei urged Iranians not to be distracted by what he described as Trump’s mixed signals, ranging from “no negotiations” to being ready for talks.
He noted: “The stakes around oil and the straits have changed. Damage control won’t stop what’s coming.
“No talks until Iran’s conditions are met. Period!”
